Oops, looks like I wasn't very quick on the uptake...and didn't read the second page of posts (duh, sorry Alan))! Jack, Cory is very good and drives like a maniac...which is to say I wonder when he sleeps! Charlie

Jack, I think I added the 485 miles from Eastpoint to West Palm twice, then added a couple hundred extra in the event I have to take a southerly tack due to a late winter storm. It's no big deal for me to remove the outbound leg to West Palm and I'll set the trip odometer when I latch on and...

Jack, I am currently idle in North Florida and would be glad to go to W. Palm and pick up your boat then deliver it to Boise for $1.30/mile one way (appx. $4,500). I have plenty of experience trailering CD25's, TomCats and Ranger tugs all over the country, about 60,000 miles worth in the last...

I heard one report that they were going to a favorite spot to catch "Reef-Donkeys" (Amberjack).

Honda's rate special ends as of today and the rate reverts to standard rates. Most Marine/RV lenders are tiered which means that the rates will vary based upon term, model year, loan-to-value (NADA)and credit history/score. You will find that the NADA values for C-Dory boats are historically...

B~C wrote "I'm not a fan of leasing, but, what if the marine industry took a page from the auto folks (nooo not going belly up and getting a bailout) and leased new boats. A person could have a new boat & save on sales tax, when the lease was up they could buy the boat used or turn it...

Mike, If you look at the photo of the Float On trailer that Dr. Bob posted you will see three steps on the Stbd. side of the winch stand. These steps have non-skid tape on them and work great. A ladder with hand rails would be possible but are really not necessary with the strength of the bow...

Here is what the Orca Website says: "During the lay-up, the transom receives six layers of hull fiberglass, two inches of 20-pound foam, four layers of liner fiberglass, and a molded engine compartment and knee-brace unit that is fiberglassed into the hull configuration, giving it the strength...

Dear Mr. Displaced "Wolfe" What you saw was Fluid Marine's "Suggested Retail Price List". Dealers can and usually will sell the boat with your selected options for less. Not a whole lot less as you will find out because these boats (at least post Latham era) are not high-production...

Now THERE'S an idea!!! We got 'em, one black, one Roberts Gray! Buy one and we'll let you have the other at dealer cost!!! :mrgreen: Charlie

Kevin & Darlene, Welcome to the site and all that comes with it! If you get up to the panhandle stop in and see us at Wefing's Marine. We have one of every model of C-Dory (except 16's) available for demo rides. Marc is in Miami for the next week or so but I'll be here to assist you...

Ralph & Sherry Lucado in Punta Gorda have the first TomCat with twin 175 Suzuki's on it. He claims (and I have no reason to doubt him) that he is averaging 2.75 MPG with half full tanks and medium load. Charlie

KennHarriet, The Cape Cruiser 23 was the precurser to the 23 Venture. Same molds, same construction materials. You can find lots of posts here on the site regarding the genesis of the Venture series boats, no need for me to reiterate them as I could not do so nearly as well as what has already...
